Re: iowa
Johnny, post up the break down of how much each quintile makes. I think it's going to be had claiming that the 4th quintile is "the rich" unless you think someone making roughly $60k a year is rich. If you want to make a claim that roughly half of all income tax collected is from the rich, then MAYBE I can get behind that.

thats why they were included.
even if you go by reasonable standards its about 60-70% income tax paid by people who make over 100k a year.
